ssDid you get that letter." "What letter?' 'Go,

The odd figure is funny, too. What figure? The
97c, the 123, the $247 the 39c, the 93c. Did you
notice that the price advertiser always clips the
half dime that way? What does it amount to? To
whose Judgment of value does it appeal? Who that
judges of value at all for s123 article instead
of $l.25? The bait is too cheap.
It isn't the odd cent the odd dollar that makes
value, but quality. And what information do you get
about quality, seeing the price? You want to see the
goods. That is our idea. That is why we advertise
the goods rather than the prices.
We say, for example, that in Hats we have all
the popular blocks and Styles and some exclusive
makes but wouldn't be telling you much if we said
we sold Hat for 40 cents You want to see the Hat
first. So simply say that being several Hat deal
ers in one, we able to buy Hats the lowest
figures. Then, in pushing Hat trade up alongside
our great clothing trade, taking smaller profits

the Hats and learn the price.
Same as to Clothing We make the clothing
sell. We know the stuff that is in it and the work
that is it, We sell direct to wearers of Clothing.
We sell at such prices that there is for

TROUBLE WISCONSIN,

Wisconsin judge has rendered an inter
esting decision. At the last session of the
legislature statute was enacted giving to
women the right "to vote at all elections in
Wisconsin in which questions relating to the
public schools were raised.n The object of
this law was to let women take part in school
elections, but the fair importuners for peliti-
cal rights at once set up the claim that they
could vote at any municipal election, because
in such municipalities the elective city Off
cials appoint the school boards. Litigation
was therefore begun. The history of the
present case is as follows: At the first cleo
tion in Racine succeeding the passage of the
new State law, Mrs. Olympia Brown Willis,
an orator and preacher. presented ballot at
poll, and the ballot was politely refused.
for malfeasance in Office, and, to soothe their
own feelings of resentment, the inspectors
sued her for attempting to stuff ballot box
of the Second ward. In delivering his de-
cision the judge pronounced the act constitu-
tional, and declared that at such q municipal
election the complainant had legal right to
vote, not only for officers whose duties might
influence the administration of schools, but
for the whole municipal ticket The defeated
inspectors have given notice of appeal to the
Supreme court.
This decision seems to be a sound one
Probably the legislature meant to only give
women the right to vote on school questions,
but if this was the case the statute was very
loosely worded. It will be interesting to see
what the Supreme court says about the mat
ter. The Wisconsin women who want to
vote are jubilant. They certainly seem to
have reason for Joy. OF course if the de-
cision is confirmed by the Supreme court the
only way for the Wisconsin men to get back
their advantage will be to have the legisla-
ture repeal the law. There appears to be
fun ahead in Wisconsin

Browns Wild Ride In the Hope of Be
ing Able to Prove an AIfbi.

lcrOnl til6 CleVelan1 PfeSS.
No man loved an alibi better than Jim
Brown, known in Ohios past history as
"Chief of the counterfeiters of Cuyahoga. "
This band of outlaws dealt principally in
bogus money, and their favorite way of
escaping justice was by proving an alibi
The band was SO numerous, so scattered,
and, withal, so loyal, that any sort of evi-
dence to show that defendant was some
where else than at the place of the alleged
crime at the time of It's commission was
always forthcoming from the mouth of
witnesses who often stood high in the
community for veracity. To prove an alibi
Jim Brown once rode horseback from Pitts
burg, Pa, to Boston, Summit county, O.,
distance of about 100 miles, in one night
The officers arrived at Boston, Browns
home, few hours after his own arrival
They arrested him. On his trial several
witnesses swore that they saw him at sun
down the day previous to his arrest at
Pittsburg. These witnesses also identified
his horse. On the defence, Brown proved
by score of good witnesses that he was
at home at sunrise the morning of his ar
rest, and that his horse was fresh and sleek
that day though it had not been ridden
for a month. The court held that Brown
could not have ridden the distance in that
time, and discharged him. But he did ride
it, and afterward told how it was done.
Finding himself certain to be arrested if he
stayed in Pittsburg a certain night, he
saddled his horse-a splendid animal-and
as soon as it was dark started out on his
wild ride of 100 miles, For the first
thirty miles his horse kept bravely and
steadily to his work. Then Brown noticed
by the irregular reach and labored breath
that the terrible strain was telling upon
his faithful brute At the next tavern
Brown procured a pint of whiskey, and,
putting half of it into small quantity of
water, give it to his horse. Then on the
road again, his willing animal working more
steadily At every hill he would dismount
and beside his horse till it passed,
then on and away, to stop at the next
tavern to give his horse more whiskey and
water. In this way galloping furiously
along levels, running on foot up and down
hills, and stimulating his steed with all
the caution skillful physician would be-
stow upon a patient critically sick-he
reached his home before day break, where a
confederate was found to devote his entire
attention to the jaded horse, while Brown
purposely showed himself to many neigh
bors as possible who testified as before

William Fl. Harper of Chicago, the author
of the Illinois high license law, has been Civ
ing some figures about its working which are
well worth attention. The law levies uni
form license of $500 upon liquor selling and of
$3.50 upon beer selling, and permits any COM
munity to increase, by a majority vote, these
licenses to any limit it pleases, or to refuse,
by the same vote, to grant any license what
ever. In many counties, estimated as COM
prising two-thirds of the soil of the State,
actual prohibition prevails. The license fee
has been raised by popular vote to 81 200,
81, 800, $4,000, and in some instances to
$4,000, with the result of completely sup
pressing the traffic. In the larger cities the
$500 fee has had the effect of greatly reducing
the number of saloons According to Mr.
Harper, Chicago, under the old law, with a
population of 450, 900, had $500 saloons,
yielding yearly revenue to the city of about
100000 Under the present law, with
population exceeding 70O,0 900, there are only
$500 saloons, and the revenue from them is

WINTER COATS,

So much coat was never before obtainable
for so little money, and, further, the art of
making coats has reached an extraordinary
development. When men who formerly
bought only of custom tailors now buy of
us we think, naturally, that our ready made
coats and suits have come up to the highest
standard.
FOR PORTLY MEN. An idea of our own!
They are cut with definite purpose other
than the making of big coat, The sleeves
are just right, the right size across shoulders;
in short, they are large only where they need
to be large. They are handsomely made and
finished in Brown Kerseys Beavers, Chin
chillas and Elysians. No other house in the
country provides this style of coat. The
prices are SIS, $1S, $50 and $25.
KERSEY BROWN. The Globe Kerseys
are at the front to-day. Fast color, satin
and fine wool lining giving rich appear
ance when the throat is thrown open), satin

have shaped backs, and are made to 6t. Ex-

There are eighty-nine cotton mills, en-
ploying nearly $4,000 hands, in India. A
noteworthy thing about these mills is that
when trade is dull the owners are uniformly
animated by an intense desire to avoid Sun
day labor, but as soon as trade becomes brisk
they would keep running eight days if there
were that many in the week. These mill
owners are of course Englishmen.
